Utah Air Monitoring Program

The Air Monitoring Section is responsible for operating and maintaining an ambient air monitoring network that protects the health and welfare of the citizens of Utah. The AMC provides air pollution information for the daily Air Quality, health advisories, winter season wood burn conditions, and summer season "Ozone Action Day " (Choose Clean Air Day) alerts. The AMC data is used to determine the relationship of existing pollutant concentrations to the National Ambient Air Quality Standards, to assist in the development of strategies to reduce pollution levels where necessary, and track the effectiveness of those strategies.
